Loki Log Query Agent

Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:

• $ git clone https://github.com/grafana/loki
• Alternatively, on Unix systems you can use make to build the binary, which adds additional arguments to the go build command.
• $ make loki

Requirements and caveats from upstream:

• Docker Driver Client is a Docker plugin to send logs directly to Loki from Docker containers.

Basic usage or getting-started notes:

• does not do full text indexing on logs. By storing compressed, unstructured logs and only indexing metadata, Loki is simpler to operate and cheaper to run.
